Head scratcher

So, I have my wedding dress for sale on OnceWed, and received an inquiry from someone wanting to buy it for... an engagement occaision.  WTF is that?  The person is clearly foreign because of some of the idiosyncrisies of their writing style.  Anyone have any ideas?!

  • Interesting.


    I have no idea.  It must be a fancy pants event because your dress is stunning. 
  • Humm...Maybe she is Asian? There is a girl on the Vegas board who is and her E-Pic's have her in a wedding dress...Very pretty pic's, but they take their pic's in a wedding gown...

  • Thanks Mutley. :)

    Hm.  That might be true.  It's kind of weird. I want to ask, but don't think it would be terribly polite.

    Yeah it wouldn't be, but if she does buy it, you will will see where you have to ship it too and her last name...

  • Were you there for the whole LIweddings debacle?  Some chick did an "Enchanted" themed engagement shoot where she and her FI rode around NY dressed like idiots in a big old wedding dress and weird ass tux.  It was horrific.

    So that's my guess.

  • If she wears a dress like that for an engagement occasion, I wonder what she wears to the wedding...
  • Oh God.  Is that going to be the demise of my dress?!  I hope to hell not Brie.  Ohhhh noooooooes.
  • It's not one of those weird scams, is it? Those always make me nervous - they seem to find sellers everywhere.

  • Well, hey, if she wants to give you the price your asking, she can use it to wash her car for all it matters!

    Maybe weird-ass e-pics? Or a bridal portrait?

    This was the first thing I thought of.
  • Hmmm... Well, we'll see what happens.  I'm sure as hell not giving her any money.

  • I second the others- the first thing that I thought of was scam.
